Editor's Note: This is the first of a series of stories on the Ghana Youth Employment and Entrepreneurial Agency, GYEEDA It was meant to solve the high level of youth unemployment in the country. But the National Youth Employment Programme, NYEP, now Ghana Youth Employment and Entrepreneurial Agency, GYEEDA has become a breeding ground of corruption. Joy News’ investigations have uncovered how some corrupt officials of the programme divert state funds into their private pockets. Our investigations have also revealed a clear system by which these officials are shielded from prosecution. In this series titled, Robbing the State, Manasseh Azure Awuni returns to GYEEDA and reveals how questionable contracts signed with service providers are robbing the nation of millions of cedis while beneficiaries’ service conditions worsen. In part one of this series, Manasseh investigates the Youth in Sanitation module, which GYEEDA runs in partnership with Zoomlion Ghana Limited.
